Alright, here is the preliminary pictures of my new CF Dash. It is just placed in right now. As I still have to make sure it all fits together and works fine. So far, so Good.

No, it is NOT Real Carbon Fiber. Pictures do NOT do it justice. It looks deep, and 3 dimensional. It has a Weave pattern which is extremely realistic. It is a process called Photolithographic or “water-transfer” printing. It is what car dealers use for “Wood” Trim as well.

I have other pieces already done, like the door handle surrounds, the overhead light surrounds, the e-brake, power windows surrounds, etc.

Well enough talk, onto the PICS!



I still have to put in the A/C vents, lights, etc, but you can see the big picture.




Don’t mind the pedals, I just placed them there to see how it would look together.


I even have the Gauge Cluster Trim surround done in that stuff. What I do want to do,
is have the actual gauges replaced with V8Kilr’s silver faced ones – OR, having the black trim done in Silver kinda like THIS


Grey/Black shift boot – Waiting for my Momo Race Shift **** to come in.


As you can see, it is very deep and reflective due to the clear-coat.

Close-up of some of the gauges.

 

I feel like I need to change the ***** to something metallic/titanium. I have another set of ***** done in the same material, but am not crazy about it.



I was thinking of using some Cannibalized Autometer Trim rings to go around the A/C
Controls. Giving it the proposed look you see below look you see below.




Misc Pictures.

ENGINE etc.. (Going in this weekend!!)

 

That's a very nice FB... extremely clean. Did you make the dash yourself? If so how hard was it?

 

Yeah nice job, I like it too, is that simulated CF paint or a type of overlay? Very Clean first Gen!

 

cool

 

I had it done. I used the spare set from my Donor car, and the process was done to it. It took alittle while to get it right, especially the Gauge Insert.

Photo-lithographic printing - It fills in Every nook and cranny. No tape, and it has a clearcoat giving it some real depth.
Thanks!

 

It looks good It certainly does NOT look like an ad-on kit.

I gotta come over one day and feel-up on your steering wheel

 

Really nice job on the interior. Looks really
good!I like how u got the gauges in the
carbon fiber. Nicest 1st gen ive ever seen.

Looks good, but what's up with that stain on your driver's seat? Depends give out one night?

 

Where? They are velour, and can be "combed" into any direction.

Either way, FD seats coming soon.

 

So cool! Love the gauges, maybe Autometer looks too "NASCAR" for 3rd gens but its right at home in old-school 1st gens.
